The Folk of the Moth: an Earth Legend Pat Crommett

Step into a world peopled by folk of myth and faery tale; a world where transportation is by one's own hoofs or wings or the wings of the great-moth, and long distance communication is by 'speaking mind.' In this world the only villian is life itself, and the quest is for a renewal of all that is dear to the heart of the people. Travel with a pair of tiny, six-winged Faery as they go to seek the illusive, wingless riders of the great-moth to learn, if they can, the secret of the moth. Follow Gormaak, the Centaur, as he guides the Faery and the Mothfolk across the Storming Desert and into the Black Valley to claim from the two-hoofed Satiree that which they, in their dire need, have taken. Visit the mountain home of the Centaur and his sons and cross the mountain glaciers to the edge of the high plateau where the winged and the wingless, led by black-winged Sorro of the many dreams and her grieving brother, Clay of the earth-red wings, plunge into the unknown and come again to the ancient City-on-the-Edge-of- the-World, the forgotten home of their common ancestors. Return, then, renewed and refreshed, to a joyful homecoming and, of course, a splendid (double) wedding.
